Discussion topic for you all, I’m curious to hear everyone’s thoughts on this!

The question: is there a good way for companies to federate and participate in the fediverse?

While the early fediverse has been fun and ‘old internet’ feeling, I’m sure most of us recognize (especially with IG Threads coming out) that it’s only a matter of time before companies start wanting a slice of the action.

While there is a ton of potential for abuse/EEE, there are also some big benefits that could come with a more widespread adoption. Is there a model that could work for everyone? And if so, how could we get there?

    I keep seeing that acronym EEE, forgive my ignorance but what does it mean in this context?

      Embrace, extend, extinguish. Basically pretend to support the platform, pull users over to your product by building a bunch of cool features, then when you hit critical mass end cross-compatibility/support for the original platform.
